Since launching her parallel career as a glamour model, Atkinson has appeared in provocative photoshoots in lingerie and swimwear, including non-nude topless shots, for men’s magazines such as Arena, FHM, Loaded, Maxim, Zoo Weekly and Nuts. In October 2006 she appeared in three of the aforementioned magazines in one month, becoming one of the most prolific celebrity glamour models in the UK. In November 2006, it was announced by Zoo Weekly that Atkinson had agreed to lend her name to their regular “sex and relationships column.”

In May 2007, Atkinson was announced as the “glamourous new face” of the British Grand Prix and the official “mascot” of the “hi-octane” championship at Silverstone on July 8. She was the face of the 2007 Tour de France. She has most recently been seen as the new face of the Lingerie chain La Senza, but recently has been replaced by Czech model Petra Nemcova. Her 2008 calendar was shot in Thailand, and will be released on November 1st 2007. Gemma has stated she is proud of the more natural look of this calendar, as opposed to the glamarously stylised look of the 2007 product. In October 2007, Atkinson was elected the new face of Ultimo’s D-G range.
